|
This article is about the Fleet Tertius battle group. For other uses of Hephaestus, see Hephaestus (disambiguation). |
Battle Group Hephaestus was part of Indomitus Crusade Fleet Tertius.[1]
History
The battle group's first major engagement was the Battle of Machorta Sound. During that campaign, the Hephaestus was charged with retaking the Fomor System from the Crusade of Slaughter, while the main units of Fleet Tertius engaged the bulk of the heretics elsewhere. Once the Crusade of Slaughter was defeated, the Battle Group left to follow Tertius as the Fleet travelled to its next campaign.[1]
